Jonathan Allen - DE, Alabama

 

 

Panthers add a blue-collar defender to a defensive line that needs a menacing presence off the edge.

PICK

Joe Mixon - RB, Oklahoma

 

 

Imagine Aaron Rodgers playing with a David Johnson-like playmaker in the backfield. Mixon is an exceptional combo back with size, speed, power, and home-run ability.

Allen is the pick I would be the most annoyed by of all the possibilities floated so far. I'd even rather have McCaffrey at 8. Allen only makes sense if there's no chance of resigning short and they're alr day admitting butler was a wasted pick. Allen may very well be a very good  DT or 3-4 DE but he absolutely isn't a 4-3 DE. Too stiff, not enough burst.

I second this.

I love how just the possibility of this makes you think the front office has made mistakes.

I think Allen is a great prospect, but in terms of our needs he'd be he guy that would be about the least exciting. Then again, if the guy turns into Aaron Donald we wouldn't care about that need thing.

As for Mixon, NFL Network had an interterestkng quote from an anonymous NFL RB a coach that made sense. He essentially said that if you're willing to draft Mixon in the 7th you might as well be willing to draft him in the 1st. You're going to get the same scrutiny and reaction to the pick either way.

That's actually very well stated.

I guarantee if Allen ran a 4.8 40 none of y'all would be complaining. Before the combine it was considered a Star-like longshot of Allen dropping to us. Now everyone acts like they would hate the pick. I would be thrilled if we got Allen as he has been arguably one of the top 3 players in college the last 2 years.
